Fund dividend means that the fund distributes part of the income to fund investors in cash, which is originally a part of the net value of the fund unit. People usually refer to funds mainly as securities investment funds.

For open-end funds, if investors want to realize income, they can also redeem part of the fund shares to achieve the effect of cash dividends; Therefore, whether the fund pays dividends and the number of dividends will not have a significant impact on investors' investment income.

For closed-end funds, it is sometimes not feasible to realize fund income by selling fund shares because the unit price of the fund is often different from the net value of the fund. In this case, fund dividends become the only reliable way to realize fund income. Investors should pay more attention to dividends when choosing closed-end funds.

Precautions:

When distributing dividends, fund managers need to set a date when registered holders can participate in dividends, and this date is date of record. Ex-dividend date refers to the total amount of dividends deducted from the fund assets on a predetermined day. On the ex-dividend date, the net value of fund shares shall be ex-dividend according to the dividend ratio.

Generally speaking, the fund share holders registered on the equity registration date enjoy the current dividend rights of the Fund. If the date of record falls on the same day as the ex-dividend date, the dividend amount shall be deducted from the share net value of the net value of that day. Fund dividends will not increase in value out of thin air.

Before dividends, the net value of fund shares subscribed by investors is higher, but they can enjoy dividends. After dividends, the net value of fund shares is lower. As a medium and long-term investment and financial management method, as long as you are optimistic about the future growth trend of a fund, you can consider buying in time.
